State of Maine Homeland Security Conference 

Pre-Conference Demonstrations
May 13, 2004

Anteon 
Fairfax, VA

Anteon will demonstrate, the common situational display system (CSDS), a web-based system that brings an incident visually into the Coast Guard Command Center and can be used in real-time operations. It standardizes and accelerates the manner in which situational awareness is acquired for any incident within local USCG operations centers (OpCens) and across the larger USCG, federal, state, and responsible party stake-holder communities.

DeLorme 
Yarmouth, ME

DeLorme's presentation will introduce XMap/GIS Editor a full featured easy-to-use mapping and spatial data suite that puts the power of GIS and GPS within everyone's reach. Ready access to information is critical in times of crisis when quick decisions must been made. This demonstration will show how the modular design of XMap/GIS Editor is adaptable to a wide range of applications, including: GIS data creation, analysis and publishing; Asset management; GPS data collection and post-processing; Routing and in-vehicle navigation; Site analysis and assessment.

Monroe Infrared 
Kennebunk, ME

Monroe Infrared Technology will demonstrate infrared image technology and how it may be employed in security/surveillance applications. Equipment to be demonstrated will be a hand held infrared camera and vehicle-mounted cameras for mobile security needs. Fixed camera systems for distant land/water surveillance needs for first alert and then tracking of people or vehicles penetrating secure areas will also be demonstrated. Infrared image technology is a 24/7 system capable of detecting (imaging) all temperature related objects within the field of view.

Maine State Police Bomb Team and Tactical Team

The Maine State Police Bomb Team and Tactical Team will demonstrate the Andros Robot made by REMOTEC. This is a large robot that weighs approximately 600 pounds. It has many capabilities useful for both the Bomb Team and the Tactical Team. It can be used to x-ray, explore, disrupt, or dismantle a device. It has been used for negotiation at tactical calls as well as surveillance. The Andros has made operations on both teams safer.

Raven Technology 
Brunswick, ME

Raven Technology will demonstrate the capability of its patented, high-efficiency AC power generation technology, AC-Direct. Most generators run at constant engine speed and cannot operate off a truck engine. Raven's advanced technology can run off primary engine drives. The compact 5kW, an under the hood generator measuring one foot in diameter by six inches, allows service emergency industries to overcome the limitations of inverters and synchronous generators for mobile, off-grid, and distributed power applications.

Technology Development and Research Institute (TRDI) 
Tucson, Arizona

TDRI will demonstrate the capabilities of the CyberEye, an unmanned air vehicle. The CyberEye has a mission range of 6.1 nautical miles, a wing span of 74.25", 56" in length, a max take-off weight of 6 pounds, speed of up to 18.25 knots, and 45" endurance. The intent is to demonstrate during "real-time" border operations in the east and west corridor the value of unmanned air vehicle technologies when combined with manpower to improve apprehension of criminals and deter illegal border crossing.

University of Maine Lab Tours
Orono, Maine

Tours of University of Maine laboratories conducting research related to Homeland Security begin at 4:30 and end at 5:45. Buses will transport participants from Alfond Arena to campus labs. Tours will last for 30 minutes so that attendees may attend more than one. Examples of sites include the Laboratory for Surface Science and Technology, the Department of Spatial Information Science and Engineering, the Advanced Manufacturing Center, and the Advanced Engineered Wood Composites Center. A full description of all tour sites will be available at the conference.
